Mandated by Cabinet, the Chief
Information Officer for the province of
British Columbia develops, proposes and maintains
corporate wide Information Management/Information
Technology (IM/IT) policy, procedures and
standards, and evaluates compliance.
This includes the authority for areas such
as data access, electronic identity management,
records management, information management,
information technology, privacy, information
security applications, and systems of government.
The management of the B.C. Government's information
and communications technology is defined by
legislation and the government's Core
Policy and Procedures Manual. The CIO
is primarily responsible for Chapter
12 on information and technology management
and this policy has relationships to virtually
every other Core Policy chapter.
